Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If screw and nut locking mechanism is used for telescopic adjustment, then the telescopic support can maintain position, but the adjustment becomes cumbersome and labor-intensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the traditional screw-nut locking mechanism with a spring-loaded buckle system. The buckle assembly uses elastic deformation of the buckle spring to provide locking force, eliminating the need for threaded fasteners and manual tightening operations. This substitution maintains positioning reliability while dramatically improving adjustment convenience.
Solution Approach 2:
The buckle assembly automatically locks into position through the elastic force of the buckle spring, which pushes the buckle block against the locking slot. The system self-regulates the locking force based on the spring's elastic properties, eliminating the need for user intervention to maintain proper locking pressure.
2Device complexity
If traditional laptop stand is used, then the structure is simple, but the display screen position is low causing neck strain
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the static laptop stand into a dynamic, adjustable structure. The telescopic support with lifting rods and buckle assemblies enables continuous height adjustment, allowing the display screen to be positioned at ergonomic levels. This dynamic capability eliminates neck strain while maintaining reasonable structural complexity through modular design.
3Adaptability or versatility
If telescopic adjustment mechanism is added to laptop stand, then height and angle can be adjusted, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the telescopic support into modular components: fixed rods, lifting rods, buckle assemblies, and clamp plates. Each component performs a specific function and can be independently manufactured and assembled. This segmentation enables adjustability while controlling overall device complexity through standardized interfaces and repeated use of identical components.
Solution Approach 2:
The buckle assembly serves multiple functions: it locks the lifting rod in position, provides adjustable positioning through locking slots at different heights, and maintains constant locking force through the spring mechanism. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate components, thereby controlling device complexity while enhancing adaptability.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The stand provides convenient and ergonomic laptop positioning, reducing neck strain and improving user experience through easy height and angle adjustments, while also offering additional functionality like wireless charging and expanded connection ports.
Implementation Method 1
each buckle assembly includes a buckle spring, a buckle block provided with a clamp block on the side, and a buckle sleeve with a release opening formed in the side; the buckle sleeves are equipped on the lower ends of the lifting rods, and the buckle blocks and the buckle springs are all arranged in the buckle sleeves, where one ends of the buckle springs are connected to the inner walls of the buckle sleeves, and the other ends support on the side walls of the buckle blocks; and under the action of the buckle springs, the buckle blocks pass through the release openings and enable the clamp blocks and the locking slots to snap
Implementation Method 2
the pulling device includes a pulling cover plate, pulling link rods, and return springs, where the pulling cover plate, the pulling link rods and the return springs are all internally arranged in the panel fixing member, and the surface of the pulling cover plate is provided with a pulling button that extends out of the panel fixing member, where one ends of the return springs abut against the inner wall of the panel fixing member, and the other ends support on the surface of the pulling cover plate and make the pulling button remain exposed

AI summary
A telescopic support includes a positioning device, a panel fixing member, two fixed rods, and two lifting rods. One ends of the two lifting rods are equipped on both sides of the panel fixing member, and the other ends thereof rods are plugged into the corresponding fixed rods and move in an axial direction of the fixed rods. During the lifting process of the lifting rods, the relative positions between the lifting rods and the fixed rods are maintained via the positioning device.
